I decided to give knitting a tie a go. I chose a yarn that I thought would produce the ugliest, most hideous looking tie I could manage. I think I succeeded. :rofl:

Mason, you just gotta keep away from the JD man!
That tie is gonna give a lot of people eye strain. I kind of thought it looked like an explosion in a paint factory.
Oompa Loompa eating Skittles and getting sick, now that's a good one!!! :roflhard:
Your objective has been met! Nice job on the knitting, BUT oh my... I wanna see a picture of you wearing that when it's done! :woohoo:

I've been perfectly sober while knitting this tie. Well, ok, not perfectly, but reasonably. :mrgreen:
